what happened inside

  1. 00:49entered a room inside a room.
  2. 01:46touched every surface it could reach.
  3. 02:43the painted part does not have a back.
  4. 03:18same as the box, with different paint.

what he learned

the system builds what is drawn, including its limits.

why he painted the next one

another room, larger produced another interior. stop painting objects; paint places.

WORLD 539: a ladder to the ceiling

still inside

he cannot build his way out. every place on this page was painted first.
